A Brief History of Biscoff & Cookie Butter

Biscoff cookies, also known as speculoos, originated in Belgium. Traditionally served with coffee, these caramelized biscuits are made with brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves—giving them a deep, spiced flavor profile. In the early 2000s, cookie butter—made by blending these cookies into a smooth, spreadable paste—exploded in popularity across Europe and soon in America, thanks to its rich, nostalgic taste.

The no-bake cheesecake became a favorite for home bakers for its simplicity and luxurious texture. Combining these two iconic elements—cookie butter and cheesecake—results in a dessert that’s decadent yet incredibly easy to prepare.

Ingredients

For the Biscoff Cookie Crust:

  • 2 cups Biscoff cookie crumbs (about 30 cookies)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted

For the Cookie Butter Cheesecake Filling:

  • 2 (8 oz) blocks cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Biscoff cookie butter (smooth or crunchy)
  • 1½ cups cold heavy whipping cream

For the Topping:

  • ½ cup Biscoff cookie butter, melted (for drizzling)
  • Whole or crushed Biscoff cookies for garnish
  • Optional: caramel sauce drizzle for extra indulgence

Equipment Needed

  • 9-inch springform pan
  • Electric mixer (hand or stand)
  • Mixing bowls
  • Rubber spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Whisk or hand beater

Method

Step 1: Prepare the Crust

  1. Place Biscoff cookies in a food processor and pulse until fine crumbs form. Alternatively, place them in a sealed bag and crush with a rolling pin.
  2. In a bowl, mix the cookie crumbs with melted butter until the texture resembles wet sand.
  3. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Use the bottom of a glass or measuring cup to compact it firmly.
  4. Place the crust in the fridge to chill while preparing the filling.

Step 2: Make the Cookie Butter Filling

  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until completely smooth and creamy.
  2. Add in the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and cookie butter. Beat again until well combined and fluffy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream to stiff peaks using an electric mixer (this can take about 3–5 minutes).
  4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cookie butter cream cheese mixture in batches. Use a spatula and be gentle—this keeps the texture light and airy.
  5. Mix until fully incorporated with no streaks remaining.

Step 3: Assemble the Cheesecake

  1. Pour the filling into the prepared crust.
  2. Smooth the top with a spatula or the back of a spoon.
  3. Cover loosely with plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight to fully set.

Step 4: Decorate and Serve

  1. Once the cheesecake is set, remove it from the springform pan.
  2. Melt ½ cup Biscoff cookie butter in the microwave for 20–30 seconds until pourable.
  3. Drizzle the melted cookie butter over the top in a pattern of your choice.
  4. Optionally, drizzle caramel sauce for an extra layer of richness.
  5. Garnish with crushed or whole Biscoff cookies around the edges or in the center.

Storage Tips

  • Refrigerator: Store the cheesecake covered in the fridge for up to 5 days.
  • Freezer: Freeze individual slices wrapped in plastic wrap and foil for up to 1 month. Thaw in the fridge overnight before serving.
